Gorham Bond, 25 years old, committed su-
lclde at the Gilsey House early this morn
ing by shooting. He was associated with
his uncle, A. c. Huidekeeper, in a ranch in
Dakota, and had considerable property.
He had no money troubles, and diappoint-
| ment in love affairs is supposed to have
| caused his suicide. Among the relatives of
the dead man are General Avery S. Huide-
keeper, Postmaster of Philadelphia and
| now ce-President of the Metropolitan
Telephone Company in this city, who is a
| cousin of Bonds mother, and Rev. James
Freeman Clark, of Boston. His mother
was daughter of Alfred Huidekeeper, of

New YORK, December 11th.-James B.
Haggin, the well-known Pacific coast
miner, landowner, cotton grower and turf

by the advance in copper. The Anaconda
mine is producing largely. The enforced
shut down of the Calumet and Hecla,
caused by another fire, places the Anaconda
in the fore as copper producer, and Hag-
gin will push things while the boom lasts.
